a job well done
it seems only proper that the heavens would cease to whimper when we finish unloading the final vanful at destination. now, my socks are damp, as are my jeans, my hands are dry, and i am feeling the satisfaction of a job well done, even though i was only (on average) 1/6th of the team. ah, well.
as much as i hate to pander to the stereotypical notion of my sex being the weaker, there is a certain joyous honor in dubbing the rest of the team (four men on one end, six on the other) the 'strapping young bucks' and letting them carry the heavy stuff down the slippery stairs of infinite treachery. i was quite content to carry the books and the bits and the bobs. no problem.
and now, i am damp, and i am cold, and i require a very long, hot shower.
